[meteorite-list] New Orleans

[Bruce Yankewitz]

Well, Matt, I understand that there have been SOME larger pieces, that's why 
I chose the word "virually" when referring to the crumb-sized pieces.  I'm 
not particularly looking for a larger piece of New Orleans, I was just 
expressing curiosity at its evolution, from fall to collector market.

Let me try it again.  How about this:  "Compared to other recent, 
similar-TKW falls, it seems like a much higher percentage of the material 
available to collectors is crumb-sized".   OK?
